The Bluegrass State is an immensely beautiful place, and there are myriad ways to experience its splendor. From hikes through some of the world’s most celebrated wonders to spectacularly scenic drives, the possibilities for epic adventure in Kentucky are endless. But given that the Bluegrass is Horse Country, it’s only appropriate that everyone explore Kentucky on horseback, at least once, and preferably in every season… and region! And just outside of gorgeous Georgetown, Kentucky, Whispering Woods Riding Stables offers guided horseback rides through the beautiful backcountry of the Bluegrass.
Kentucky Horse Country is a beautiful place, and while Lexington is most often associated with this blue-ribbon slice of the Bluegrass, nearby Georgetown boasts equally scenic splendor, in the most beautifully bucolic of settings.
